  1. Off to see a Lexus RC-F tomorrow (Sorry @Peter P lol)
  2. So.... I sold the Supra. I hope the new owner will be very happy with her. Onwards and upwards
  3. As per title. Brand new never used. £50 posted.
  4. I used these guys (mainly because they were local to me): https://www.aliwheelrimrepairs.co.uk/ Did a great job and never had any issues with it after.
  5. Assuming getting it repaired isn't an option? When I hit a pot hole in my F&F replica I dented a wheel. Was the only option for me as the racing hearts were impossible to find. But then I suppose being brand new wheels you'd rather have a replacement.
  6. Found the mkiv owners stand. I ended up with a whole stand to myself
  7. I'm on stand 18 with South-Jap-Society. Although no idea who else is going! May have a whole stand to myself

    Nissan Z

    I like it! Plus the fact it'll have 400bhp and a manual gearbox as standard I recon it'll outsell the mk5 easily. I still don't understand with the Lexus RC and LC in their arsenal which could easily been changed to look like the FT1 concept why Toyota felt the need to start from scratch with BMW
  9. I had one on my first Supra when I bought it. Never had any issues with police etc. I removed it though as didn't like the way it looked.
  10. Not sure you'll even get a shell for 10k these days!
  11. I was booked in with South Jap Society. But just been speaking to the club owner and they've sold their car and not going anymore. Not sure what I should do now or if the Club Pass is still valid. Think i'm going to have to call them.
  12. I was bored yesterday so I took a trip to Toyota. I test drove the new Supra, both 2.0 gr and 3.0 turbo versions. Have to say the 2.0 took me by surprise, was a lot nipper than I thought it would be and its a lighter car. Can deffo feel the difference. Also drove the Yaris GR, that was fun! Few extra bhp and it would be perfect in my opinion. Next up is to try the RC-F, this is the real contender for the next replacement of my current supra. Unfortunately the local lexus garage didn't have one so have to go to Guildford next week. Saw an LC in the lexus show room, was a beautiful looking car but 100k price tag
  13. I never buy my cars for the money they make. I buy them, build what I want then move on. Once they get to a certain point and I can't justify to myself spending thousands more I sell. The only one I've regretted selling so far was the F&F build, but that was more due to the rareness of the parts it had.
  14. Wander if this Supra ever knew when sitting covered in green slime and dirt that one day it would hit the jackpot One hell of a transformation! Looking great and sounding epic!
  15. So we unplugged the injector to see if it was getting power, all was fine. Plugged it back in and everything is working perfectly. Must have been a loose connection on that plug!
  16. Clean as in no oil. Was also completely dry. We did ignitor as well, swapped it with another.
  17. Spark plug was clean. Was working fine the day before. Car is rarely used and never pushed hard.
  18. TT auto. But all coils are sparking so guessing it's possibly a fuelling issue? It has lots of smoke if try and rev it.
  19. My friend has a misfire on his Supra at idle and when driving. We changed all the spark plugs and swapped out the coil packs with no change. Clips are fairly new. We disconnected each coil pack so we could localise the misfire, it's in cylinder 6 (back of engine) Then decided to use another coil pack with a spark plug in it and checked each cylinder (so we could visually see the spark) and we got a spark on each. Any ideas what else we can try please or what might be causing the issue?
  20. I just used a cheap ebay one. Worked fine on my old exhaust. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-5-UK-Exhaust-Muffler-Baffle-Tip-Silencer-Round-Universal-Stainless-Steel-/363008445779?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0
